Bored of the red tomato sauce pasta? Mix up your meals with these Asian ground beef noodles. It is loaded with Asian flavours, ginger, soy sauce, spring onion and Chinese dark vinegar etc. A quick yet satisfying one pot meal recipe to simplify your weeknights.
The ground beef is pan fried to bring out the flavour then seasoned with soy sauce, grated ginger and white pepper powder. Corn flour is to thicken the sauce. And add some drops of Chinese dark vinegar and chilli oil on your plate, a taste of heaven! 🙂
- Add the soy sauce to the pan fried beef and stir fry for 10 seconds to caramelize the soy sauce and bring out the toasty and sweet flavours.
- I found the Vermicelli pasta has a similar texture to the Chinese hand pulled noodles. But you can use any type of noodles for this recipe.
